Hey folks Scott Weingard here and this is the M-Krit podcast

specifically it is the Cardiovascular M-Krit podcast which means very shortly we'll be

joined by Trina Augustine who is the master of all things cardiovascular MCRIT.

Today's episode is on differential auctionation and ventilation during VA, Vino arterial ecmo.

Now normally on these mechanical circulatory support episodes,

I will tell you like there's something here even for people who do not do

echmo they are not as I like to call them pump heads there's still something to

learn about physiology about how respiratory dynamics work, all that stuff. Not this one.

If you're not doing ECMO, then today's episode is going to have no real relevance to your

life. You are probably better off just skipping it.

Now, I will tell you, because there are these doubters out there that every time I post an episode like this,

they're like, I didn't sign up for this. This is not, you know, bread and butter, emergency medicine

critical care or resuscitation or acute critical care. This is a bonus. It's a

bonus. The regular scheduled episode will be there on Thursday. This is not taking away from that. This is not

stealing your joy. This is not eliminating space for what could have been an

episode directly relevant for your practice. So don't worry, don't worry.

If you're on Reddit, you know, who tells me all of my episodes now

are on meditation.

There's been exactly one episode on meditation

in all of M-Krit, and it was at a clinical conference, that's where the lecture came from.

But be that as a may.

If you're a pump head, listen. If you're not, you're more than welcome to listen,
